 It will be an excellent time to reassess the situations in our lives and surrender to the process of letting go of things that bog us down but do not help us grow.

We are now out of the atavistic cocoon that Pisces provides, and we have effortlessly gotten clarity on what is important to us. Now it's time to get your projects started, without hesitation! Uranus will be here to help clear blockages and keep you mentally nimble as different, unexpected events occur to catalyze your projects or to provide inspiration as to which goals to attain. Cognitive agility is a must, for Mercury is the esoteric ruler of Aries, so protect your head: speak your mind, and be open to the fact that all is not what it seems.

One of the pitfalls of our current celestial evolution, as we speak our minds, is overzealous communication of emotions. Of course, there is nothing wrong with sharing your ideas and feelings in a passionate manner, but we may find that we are dismissed by others who may be uncomfortable, unready or unwilling to receive the message we have for them. It is not because we are wrong or stupid, but because the presentation is a bit jarring. This is especially true for those individuals who are born under Fire or Water signs or have many aspects under these elements, as passion is related to Fire and Water. It may be prudent to rely on a bit of mimicry of those born under Earth or Air signs, just for the time being. Temperance is the name of the game.

Still, temperance will be a challenge, because of the sky's emphasis on Jupiter right now. Jupiter rules Pisces and Sagittarius, those born with their Sun in these two signs or those who are Jovial (heavy 9th or 12 house, etc.) will feel this transit this most. Get clear on the vision that you have, the set of values that makes you get up out of bed in the morning. Any planet that touches Jupiter will now seem larger than life. Aries wants to conquer and have fun, so now is the opportunity to stop being fearful and start opening ourselves to different experiences. Jupiter will allow us to step out on faith and land with both feet on the ground.

As we speak of faith, the New Moon in Pisces on the 17th will also help facilitate bringing forth order from chaos and being able to maintain perspective at times when it's easier to worry over the little things. It will be an excellent time to reassess the situations in our lives and surrender to the process of letting go of things that bog us down but do not help us grow. This is especially helpful in our upcoming Aries period, as Aries likes to travel light.
